are those late nite AsSeenOnTV actors happy?

Its 2am. I only watch TV in a hotel when I'm on Holiday. (Oh yeah. I'm watching The Odyssey in 70mm in the 2nd largest screen in the world. Maybe see you tomorrow if this goes through)

But these guys. (Pic can't upload, but maybe that's a good thing. Can expand from The Hosts, to Those In Black and White in the As Seen On TV Ads)

Yes, they are on TV. They have a job almost just being themselves. But they are also selling AsSeenOnTV Items, at 2am.

Do you think they are happy? To be known as the "oh yeah, the late night salesman" (which is sad) But they are hired because they sell products. Studios pay extra for a good face/personality (which is good)

I have 0 friends IRL, so I would trade my 0 social credit for a guaranteed paycheque and only being recognized by 2am drunks.

Car vs Ric

I think its Carton [Somthings] vs Richmond Tigers.

Think they are both in the same state.

AFL can be impressive. (I think 150 meter pitch. At least a 50*(translate below) meter line from the Scoring Zone to the Goal Posts.

I meuseured 25 meters*, and tried to kick a goal. It limped into the scoring zone. The fact that tellented people can run for 100+ meters and STILL kick the ball 50 meters is physically impressive.

But seeing 20 people PER TEAM running around for a ball just looses my interest.

150m = 492 ft

50m = 164 ft

25m = 82 ft

Any Americans out there sober enough to correct c/drunk thoughts, you're probably right

(I told myself 'I will be home by 10pm. 10:30 the latest. It's now 11:15. Oops)

Its so cool that you can install GrapheneOS via another phone

Imagine meeting someone else with a pixel phone, talking about how cool it is, then you bring up how you have a custom OS to block google and tracking from your device.

If they are interested, you can offer to just plug your phone into there's, press 3 buttons, and presto, their device is free

(Well, you have to imagine it. I didnt meet a pixel user here at the bar, but I did free another device for me to upgrade to.)

And of course, even if they decide to free their device, they have to loose all the data on it, so you will need to have a few spare USB-C to USB-A drives on your keychain for them to borrow. Then it might take a while to back up data, 30 minutes to flash GrapheneOS, then EVEN MORE time to teach them how to install apps and such, so it will take a while...

But it is technically possible...

Man fuck the system

Fuck laws, whatever if you follow em but I honestly see them more as suggestions. The only 3 laws I think there should be are, no murder, no theft, no rape

Fuck most of the other ones, maybe I'm forgetting a few big ones but damn I wasn't born in this world to listen to some system tell me what I'm not allowed to do.
